What is Paid Medical/Family Leave?

Paid Medical/Family Leave is a new leave bank as of 9/16/2020 for unclassified employees (Unclassified Exempt, Unclassified Non-exempt, and Unclassified Hourly policy profiles) with an approved medical or family leave case.

How do I request Paid Medical/Family Leave?

Paid Medical/Family Leave will be added to your bank when you have a qualifying event and an approved leave case.  See the FMLA page for more information about leave.

You will see the bank on your Leave tab in EmpCenter once the balance has been added (if you do not have a balance you will not see the bank listed):

Please note, the balance is added manually to your bank in EmpCenter once you have an approved leave case, so you will also see an exception on the timesheet noting that someone other than the employee saved the timesheet.

How do I use Paid Medical/Family Leave?

You enter Paid Medical/Family Leave just like any other leave on your timesheet:

If you have a protected leave case, be sure to associate the Paid Medical/Family Leave taken with the leave case.  See the Protected Leave guide for more information.
